01- A shake in the expressways |
As a result of construction for half century, American expressway have reached 90 thousands KM, is first in the world (China is second, it have 35 thousands KM). When you drive in its expressway with 12 roadways or 16 roadways, looked about the roll in traffic, you will feel a shake, realize its national strength power.
